​So, when I read some emails that sounded like there was a problem
upgrading to a newer version of debian etc on a large number of networked
machines connected to a server ​and I then began to think about how you
would switch to running e.g. Gentoo or some other Linux distro and even
tried posting something in an effort to be helpful, that was all pointless
and I was being subtly trolled........

In fact what was really required was some psychotherapy instead.

Oh well....
